We all grow up,
whether we like it or not.
We may not act our age,
but our age is our age
&
The CHRISTMAS Season reminds us of that.
Think back to that one special CHRISTMAS
when Santa brought you that one gift
that you couldn't wait to get.
Remember what it felt like~
to actually RECEIVE what you really wanted,
as there were no substitutes.
Oh how I remember~
a Tiny Tears doll.
I also remember the excitement that filled my heart
when my children RECEIVED what they really wanted.
Santa heard & Santa delivered
because
Santa cared.
A man in a red suit with a big belly and a Ho Ho Ho
How did he know?
Maybe because he read every letter.
WHAT DO YOU WANT FOR CHRISTMAS?
Instead of a
Dear Santa letter,
write a
DEAR GOD
letter~
Because
HE Hears & HE Delivers
because
HE Cares about
giving you what your heart desires,
and it always comes
wrapped up in a
BABY.
But all
GOD asks is for us to
RECEIVE HIM
like a child on Christmas morning
Who is filled with
GREAT ANTICIPATION
&
GREAT EXPECTATION
and runs to his/her gift with such excitement,
unwraps it
&
IMMEDIATELY RECEIVES the gift with
Joy and thanksgiving.
WHO IS THIS BABY?
the One who was born to reconnect us back to the GOD who hears~
"I write these things to you who believe in the name of the SON OF GOD
so that you may know that you have eternal life.
This is the confidence we have in approaching GOD:
that if we ask anything according to HIS will,
HE hears us.
And if we know that HE hears us—
whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of HIM" (I John 5:13-15)
Just ask! DO YOU WANT JESUS FOR CHRISTMAS?
because
HE is
"THE HEART OF CHRISTMAS" (watch below)
